By which I mean dies, not temporarily goes off it's food.I reckon 10 months of the year will be no issue, but winter temps in my 'tarantula room' drop to teens, even with a heatmat. Of course that's mainly at night and days would be a little warmer.My corn snakes tolerate cold temperatures, they just don't eat during them. But then cold means they don't need to eat, so...Basically how cold can the nights get before I have issues? I ask so I can do something if need be? No T yet, so no immediate danger!</blockquote>
